As we prepare to celebrate 250 years of America’s independence, we invited our U.S. Army in Japan community — service members, veterans, civilians, and even military children — to reflect on the question, “What does being an American mean to you?”
In the coming weeks leading up to and beyond Independence Day, we’ll be regularly posting video vignettes that highlight these Americans’ reflections.
Today’s vignette features Syon Phillips, 10th Grade Representative, Zama Middle High School Executive Board.
These stories offer unique perspectives, but collectively, they weave a powerful tapestry of the enduring spirit and shared values that unite us all.
